Whats your absolute ESSENTIAL GADGET / NEW THING you'll be bringing?

[Jacko45]

Getting exciting now people, we're looking enough to be borrowing a Campervan this year. 

My mates also just bought and is bringing one of these: We will be preparing everything before we get there and be churning out some late night pizzas at camp. 

 

What new gadget or essential are you excited to use/bring?

This looks great.

Not exactly a "new thing", but hopefully by June my live-in van will have had a total refit and paint job. It'll feel like a new van

ha, bloody hell, thats a fucking camping pizza oven 😄 thats stylish! anchovies and olives, get em on there!

 

Nothing of specific note in terms of camping tech for me, but i am quietly excited by the powdered dirty chai latte powder that Drink Me have released - starting every day with one of those bad boys is pretty damn decent (hot water via the oxfield, ofc)

Make sure it's well locked up. Someone tried to pinch ours in Oxylers last year.

Quality isn't it! 

Not big or heavy either, using same gas as the stove in the van too. Pepperoni with red onion, peppers and mushrooms for me after a day on the lash. Very excited.

My theragun is coming with. Thankfully in a camper as I wouldn't take camping, but omg the relief that thing brings on tired feet, legs and back. 

[sauceageroll]

Wish I was joking when I say that after a few looseners on Sunday, i took a leap of faith and got some leather cut off gloves to sport watching GnR.

Plenty of practice runs before you arrive, cooking good pizza in a field is a special skill 😋

Transit long wheel base Luton, self conversion.

If you're happy to do a self conversion it's not too expensive.

I am available for trials if you want to practice pizza on people. I'll be onsite from the monday onwards, and have an admirable capacity for pizza 😄

We had to cable tie ours to a pole between runs til we could get it tucked away in the lock up.

I have to say that your choice,  a few posts above, for anchovies and olives do show what an expert you are.

What time of day do we have to place our orders to collect in the evening 😉

My mrs. got her dad some warm gloves with LED lights on and they're sick, might bring a pair. 

Be able to feel your fingers AND see what you're doing while you roll one in the cold dark!

I'm not a late night guy generally so orders placed before 6pm will be ready to be collected by 11pm.

Toss up between a french press and an aeropress for morning coffee.  Not that new or exciting but it'll better than the usual instant.

On the practical side I got this. Now it just has to get through it's MOT.
